SHOULD BE FRIENDS
AMERICA AND JAPAN NEAR TO
EACH OTHER, SAYS CHiNDA
?
SENTIMENT IS EXPRESSED
Japanese Ambassador and Secretary
of State IVryan Principal Speakers
at llttsburg l>lnncr t<? (ioor^c \N .
Guthrie, Now Amorioan Ambassador
to Jitpun.
The Japanese ambassador to
Amerioa, Viscount Chinda, and the
new American ambassador to Japan.
George \V. Guthrie, of Pittsburg,
shared the honors of a testimonial
dinner Friday night at Pittsburg, arranged
by "friends and neighbors"
of the latter. Secretary of State William
J. f*ryan, who it was planned
would formally introduce the ambassadors
to each other, was so delayed
that ho arrived almost as the festivities
ended.
Ambassador Guthrie, in expressing
his appreciation of the demonstration
in his honor, addressing himself to
Viscount Chinda, said:
"Your excellency, what you see
here will, 1 have no doubt, convince
you that the American people as a
whole intend to keep faith and desire
to live in peace and friendship
with the Emporer whom you are
justly proud to represent and the
people to which you are justly proud
to belong, as well as with all other
nations of the world.
"We are a people who keep faith
and wish to do justice. I am called
to a station?I know not for how
long?where 1 am to practice silence.
In view of the message from the
President, which the Secretary of
State will read to us, It is neither
necessary nor proper for me to say
me vuau u?f>urtj your excellency
that unless 1 was in full and hearty
accord with his j>olicy 1 would not be
liis representative in the mission to
Japan with which he has honored
me."
Viscount Chinda apologized for
reading his speech, saying he feared
the pitfalls of a foreign language.
Viscount Chinda said:
"Gentlemen, the constant improvement
in the means of communication
and transportation is substantially
reducing the (geographical distance
which intervene between different
parts of the world. The United
States and Japan, separated as they
are by the waters of the Pacific
Ocean, are now brought, and are destined
to be brought, into closer contact
with each other in all branches
pf peaceful activities.
"I do not deny that such contact
Is liable to give rise to occasional
misunderstandings and complications.
but I do deny the existence, or
the possible existence, of any phase
in those difficulties which would not
eventually yield to due and timely
processes of diplomatic treatment
tfio treatment of justice and fair
play?and of a sympathetic understanding
of the problems of each nation
by the other. It is this spirit
that has so eminently characterized
the American people and has also Invariably
guided the course of action
taken by Japan in dealing with questions
of international moment. It is
in this spirit alone that those questions
could he successfully adjusted
to the true and lasting satisfaction of
all parties. It should be the noble
endeavor of every patriotic man in
both countries to direct his attention
to an amicable solution on such basis
of any problem that may confront us
in our intercourse and to transmit to
our posterity the unspotted record of
our mutual good understanding bequeathed
to us by our forefathers.
Our records form part of our dear
and valued assets. It should he preserved.
It should be amplified and
extended to all ages to come.
"Our two nations, bound by such
auspicious tradition and gui led by
the same aims and the same aspirations
to contribute to the pacific progress
of the world, should forever remain
good and trusted neighbors.
And I feel, gentlemen, that mv humble
labors in this direction find ready
co-operation and encouragement at
the hands of your great President, as
well as your renowned Secretary of
State, Mr. Bryan, and your worthy
representative to Japan, Mr. Outhrie,
who honor us by their presence tonight.
1 am sure that the e pressions
of friendship voiced by such
distinguished leaders of American
politics cannot fail to touch a responsive
chord in the hearts of all thinking
men on both sides of the Pacific."
Secretary Bryan, invited to introduce
George VV. Guthrie, the new
American ambassador to Japan and
Baron Chinda, the Japanese ambassador,
at the dinner at Pittsburg Friday
night in honor of Mr. Guthrie,
paid glowing tributes to both of the
diplomats. Ho said, in part:

gentlemen, his Excellency,

Shows What thr Protective Tariff Did
for Tlicin. ;
It Is cited by George P. Brett, president
of one of the greatest publishing
houses in the United States?The
Macmillan Company?in an article in
the current issue of The Outlook.
Mr. Brett is a stockholder in the
company about which he writes and
is personally acquainted with its his
tory ana methods; so ho writes with
authority. Hut being a man of ana- ]
lytical mind, and naturally a square <
dealer, he goes Into the situation fur- ,
ther.
The factory, he says, was started |
twenty years ago on borrowed money.
No further capital lias been put into
the business. To-day it is a prosperous
concern, working until ten j
o'clock at night in the rusli season, <
and turning away orders.
The founder of the company gets a
salary of $25.000 a year, and Mr. j
Brett says that this man and two ,
other high-salaried oilicials find it
difficult to keep busy in the few (
hours they spend daily at the factory.
In view of these facts, he be
lieves that the public is paying too
much for the product, or the workment
are not being paid enough, or ,
else that both conditions exist to
some extent. ,
There are many other slmilarin- ,
stitutions in this country which have ,
grown extravagant and "flabby", in ;
Mr. Brett's opinion, under shelter of
the tariff wall. Companies have got ;
rich so easily that they have overloaed
themselves with "ornamental" of- j
cials .He cities thecase of a large (
machinery manufacturing company
in which the president, vice president ]
treasure, secretary, and assistant secretary
all get fancy salaries without doing
any work. The realmanagcr,
who works hard, is paid a compar- <
tively modest salary. j
This situation Mr. Brett regards i
as unwholesome. He believes such <
a "reasonable reduction" In duties (
as is now proposed will have some (
effect on the cost of living, but that it
need not reduce wages. The saving
ought to he made, ho thinks, in cutting
off extravagances and in enforcing
efficiency of operation. So the
reduced duties "should prove a blessing
to the manufactures themselves".
These are the obviously sensible
views of a man of the highest stand- .
ing in the business world, whose immediate
self-interest would call for a *
continuation of governmental favors
to the business in which he is interested,
says The Augusta Herald,
but his conscience seems to have been
awakened at last to the sin of robbing
voters by means of the tariff.
O. DAMMIT! THAT'S ALL.
Nothing Wrong, Just Man's Name,
Hut He Wants it Changed.
Orlando Dammit, of Elmsford, N. j
C., wishes to change his name and i
has started procedings to that end. (
Dammit says that his name has cans- i
ed him a great deal of worry. Half i
thetime he doesn't know whether his (
name is being called or whether some
person is merely giving vent to his g
feelings. Anyhow it's awkward and c
confusing to have some friend call <
out to him in the street. "Dammit
Come here a second, will you?"
"I'm Retting sick of it," says Dammit.
"Good heavans, it was bad en- ^
ough when I went to school. I play- ^
ed on the foot hall team and when- ^
ever I mado a good play the fellows j
used to give me a long cheer. It ^
went something like this: 'Rah, rah, f

nearly eight years ago in his far away

"I feel that both his country and 11
ours are fortunate in having in the
diplomatic service one so fully equipped
for the duties that fall to an ambassador,
while no one could surpass v
him in devotion to the interests of his t

\t Charleston Young Dingle is Killed
by Young Huinine, While Target
Shooting.
The Charleston Post says James
Maiveey Dingle, Jr., 1.1-year 1 old son
jf City Kngineor J. II. Dingle, was accidentally
shot and killed Monday
morning by a parlor ritle in the
nands or his friend, Willie Iluinme,
1 ."> years of age, son of William A.
(Iumme, of G Council street, the
tragedy happening at Mr. Dingle's
residence, at 139 Tradd street. The
boys had been playing for some time
with the ritle.
The accident happened about 9:30
lug at targets set up about the yard
and just a short time before tlie accilent
happened, Mrs. Dingle had called
to the boys, advising care in the
handling of the rifle. She had hardly
turned from the window when the report
of the ride was again heard and
the wounded boy called to his mother
that he was shot.
Hurried calls were made for physicians
but the lad died before medical
aid reached him. lie had been
shot in the heart. Exactly how it all
happened the wounded boy was unable
to explain it. The inquest will
be held Tuesday.
Young Dingle was a very promising
boy. lie was a student at the
Crafts school and the fact that he
was at home Monday morning is explained
by the statement that his
yearly average was so high that he
was excused from taking the examinations
which are in progress at
school. Recently he was awarded a
prize for his essay in the Public Safe- .
ty League contest and on a previous
occasion he distinguished himself by
capturing an essay prize in a contest
conducted by the Civic Club.
SHAKE-I P IS FEARED.
\ttachees of House Are Afraid They
Will Loose Their Places.
A Washington dispatch says employees
at the capitol are on the
'anxious seat", for their jobs are in
jeopardy as a result of the action of
:he Democratic caucus Tuesday.
Representative Cox of Indiana,
started tho trouble by presenting a
esolution proposing to open up all
ho patronage, comprising approxi- .
nately 2.">0 places and affecting door- !
keepers, messengers, policemen,
>ages and a score of others, and to
lave immediately a distribution of
hese places equally among all the *
Democratic members of the House.
In the discussion that followed,
Representative Murray, of Oklahoma,
jresented a resolution which was
idopted, referring the mater to a .
'ommittee of three, with direction to
eport a plan for distributing patronige
that would he fair and consistent
with efhciency of service.
'Mr. Murray said he wanted his
ihare of patronage, but he believed '
'flieiency should be the first consideration.
?
Tho Press and World Peace.
William C. Deming, editor of the "
.Vyoming Tribune, tells of the opporunitv
and duty of the press in relaion
to world peace in a pamphlet
ust off the press, in which he asserts
hat "it will prove a much easier task
or the press of tho world to create a ientiment
for peace than for govern- I
nents, hampered by centuries of inlulgence
in legalied barbarism, to deitroy
the desire for war." The
Vugusta Herald says the power of
he press for good or for evil is unquestioned,
and it can exercise a .
powerful influence in the matter of :
vorld peace. However, just as emilent
public men differ upon this
nomentous question, so does the civlized
world.
The editor of The Tribune comnends
the press for its unanimity in vaging
effective warfare against *
:reed and monopoly which prey upon
he public, but condemns the press
or it "masterful influence in arousng
a peaceful nation to war against
?pain". The first constitutes a proest
against evil conditions and like
>ther a matter of principle. How- ~
ver, in the case of the war with
Spain, Mr. Deming contends that
'there was no issue at stake, no demand
that America might have made
ipon Spain, even unto InrlAmnltv fm
he loss of the Maine, that could not
ave been settled by arbitration".
i
Speaking of war, a well known
writer has said: "C.ive me the money
hat has been spent in war and I will ~
iiirehase every foot of land upon the
lobe. T will clothe every man, wonan
and child in an attire of which
ings ai\d queens will he proud. T ^
v'ill build a schoolhouse on every
illside, and every valley over tho
/hole earth: I will build an academy
n every town.and endow it; a college
n every state, and will fill it with j,
hie professors; I will crown every
ill with a place of worship, conserated
to the gospel of peace; 1 will
upport in every pulpit an able teachr
of righteousness, so that on every ^
iabbath the chimes on every hill will
nswer the chimes on another around
he world."

Insane Wo mini Patient Failed on Her
Thirty-fifth Attempt.
For the thirty-fifth time Alvaretta
of th ehotiaslp toesd. . r-darBhere
Johnson, thirty years old, an inmate
of the hospital at Columbus, O., attempted
suicide. Having tried many
schemes to end her life without avail,
she returned to t.ho same method
which she has tried more than a
dozen times, that of hanging herself.
But, as on other occasions, she was
rescued and now is back in tho strong
ward where sho has spent most of
her time since being an inmate. She
\vt\s received April, 1912, and has
been a source of constant worry to
the attendants. 11 et* latest attempt
at suicide was made while she was
nursing injuries received on April
18, when sho attempted to end hef
life by driving a nail into her head
with a fiat iron.

A Word for the Bats.
Tho Creenvillo Piedmont says the
discovery has been made that a bat
will eat between two and three hundred
mosquitoes in a night. It is
also declared that they prey upon
other nocturnal insects which are
harmful to human beings. Dr. Chas.
R. Campbell of San Antonio, Texas,
has studied the question of bats,
and has observed that in districts
where there are many places used as
roosts by bats, there is an absence of
mosquitoes and the people don't pet
malarial fever. As further proof in
this direction, Dr. Campbell found
that when a certain barn was torn
clown and the bats deprived of their
lodgings, the mosquito pest reappeared.
The discovery by Dr. Campbell
may make a considerable difference
between the conditions of health and
ill health of many parts of our country.
The wise man will make use of
the facts.
